107. Spring Bear is in The Air with Joe Kondelis

Joe Kondelis joins me from Cody, WY, for a great discussion centered around bears and Spring Bear Season. As President of the Western Bear Foundation, he has some fantastic perspective on all things black bears! In this episode, we discuss the onslaught of anti-hunting organizations that see spring bear hunts as "low-hanging fruit." Then, we get deep into strategies and tips for spring bear hunting. From calling, spot and stalk, and bear baiting, we touch on a little of it all to help you get closer to notching a bear tag! Joe is a wealth of knowledge on the topic, and if you're heading to the bear woods this year, don't miss this one! Western Bear Foundation on Instagram SHOW SPONSORS AND DISCOUNTS!
